She finally understood why some people liked to seek excitement when they were in a bad mood.
Riding a roller - coaster to the highest point and then rushing down with a "swish", the adrenaline soared, bringing a brief sense of relief and pleasure.
Moreover, at the moment when the adrenaline soared, it seemed as if all troubles and sorrows could be cast aside.
She liked it very much and enjoyed it.
One ride on the roller - coaster was not enough, nor were two or three rides.
Lin Jinran was greedy for this feeling of a blank mind. She pulled Su Qinian to go on the roller - coaster with her.
Su Qinian keenly noticed Lin Jinran's excitement. He quickly stopped her from going on the roller - coaster for the fifth time and said gently, "Let's change to another project."
"Okay..." Lin Jinran scanned around and set her eyes on the drop tower. "Let's go play that."
Su Qinian looked in the direction she was looking and saw the drop tower. He twitched the corner of his mouth and politely asked, "Just once."
Only once. It's a bit of a pity.
Lin Jinran unconsciously bit her nails. A look of annoyance flashed across her face. She stared at the drop tower and reluctantly replied with a "yes".
Later, Lin Jinran played on the drop tower once. She begged Su Qinian to play it one more time. Su Qinian softened his heart and agreed to play it with her again.
After the second time, while Su Qinian wasn't paying attention, Lin Jinran secretly went on the drop tower one more time. This made Su Qinian so angry that he wanted to grind his teeth. He knocked hard on her head.
"Aren't you usually most afraid of these things? What's going on today? Aren't you afraid anymore? Your courage is getting bigger and bigger. One or two times aren't enough. You have to play four, five, six, or seven times."
Su Qinian just didn't understand. Lin Jinran suddenly seemed like a different person, a bit strange inside and out.
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry. I won't do this again next time." Lin Jinran tugged at the boy's sleeve, gently swayed it from side to side, tilted her head up, and acted coquettishly. Her glazed eyes almost reflected his entire face.
Su Qinian's heart was about to melt. He snorted, folded his arms, turned his head away, and deliberately didn't look at her. "It's good that you know. It is exciting, but you can't play like this. You didn't even discuss it with me."
Just now when he turned around to look for her, he saw her sitting on the drop tower with her eyes shining amazingly. Su Qinian was directly scared.
Fortunately, she was okay. This was just a normal exciting project.
"I swear, I promise I won't do this again next time." Lin Jinran raised one hand to swear, with a serious expression.
The girl's voice was soft and gentle. Su Qinian secretly tilted his head a bit and lowered his eyes to look at her. He found that the girl was smiling brightly. The hand she had raised instantly turned into a gun and pointed at him.
She made a "bang" sound and said proudly, "Caught you, Class Monitor~"
Su Qinian's ears were completely red. It was the fluster after being caught and also the shyness from the excitement.
He pretended to be calm, grabbed the girl's arm, and dragged her towards a random project in the amusement park.
"Don't you want to play? The amusement park will start kicking people out at eleven. There's still an hour until eleven."
Lin Jinran let out a scream and tried hard to keep up with his pace.
The distance between them was only a few centimeters. Lin Jinran looked up at Su Qinian. The first thing she saw was his chin. Her gaze slowly moved up. The outline of the young man's side face was clean and sharp. His fair skin took on a cool color under the colorful lights.
Unexpectedly good - looking.
Lin Jinran blinked gently and let him drag her into a mild entertainment project.
After that, they kept playing the projects until the amusement park started kicking people out. Then Su Qinian and Lin Jinran appeared.
Su Qinian restarted the electric bike. He turned his head and asked, "Are you going to sleep tonight? It might be five or six o'clock in the morning by the time we circle around the whole Wannan City."
"I'm not going to sleep. We've even skipped classes. Are we still afraid of a little staying up late?" Haven't they stayed up late for studying before?
It was an expected answer.
Su Qinian raised his eyebrows and tilted his chin, signaling her to get on.
Lin Jinran straddled the bike directly and pointed at the road ahead. "Go ahead, Class Monitor."
The sky was like a flowing pool of ink. The wind was a cool green tone, blowing up the school uniforms of the teenagers and girls. Under the faint moonlight, the hair of the boy on the bike fluttered slightly. A withered green leaf accidentally landed on his shoulder.
Lin Jinran's eyes moved slightly. She leaned forward and gently blew away the leaf. A faint fragrance floated around, stirring up a flutter of the heart.
When a glimmer of the sun like a salty egg yolk slowly rose on the horizon, they had cycled around Wannan City for most of the night.
The breakfast shops around the school were bustling. Some students were rushing in through the school gate to study at the last moment before dawn.
Su Qinian locked the bike.
After a night of unrestrained behavior, those once - unhappy and depressed feelings were truly released.
Lin Jinran was in an extremely happy mood.
"Let's go. I'll treat you to breakfast."
Lin Jinran was grateful to Su Qinian. He was willing to spend a whole night accompanying her and letting her indulge.
At this young and vibrant age, the impulsive feeling of liking was like the dark clouds that had lingered for days being suddenly broken through by a force. A faint ray of sunlight shone on the land, warming the whole world.
"Then I won't be polite. I must give you a good fleecing." He let out a soft laugh and reached out to flick Lin Jinran's forehead. She couldn't dodge in time and felt a warm finger gently touch her and then quickly leave.
The faint warmth lingered on her forehead for a long time, like a weak electric current running into her heart.
Lin Jinran gave a playful smile. Her eyes were bent into a crescent, filled with the brightness of the rising sun. She said half - jokingly, "Sure, fleece me however you like. You can even bankrupt me."
Lin Jinran thought Su Qinian would take her to a nearby morning tea shop. Instead, he casually found an open - air breakfast shop near the school gate and sat down gracefully.
Seeing Lin Jinran standing there in a daze, he said jokingly, "Are you having second thoughts? Don't want to treat me anymore?"
"No, no." Lin Jinran came back to her senses, strode over, and sat down. "Do you only want to eat this for breakfast?"
What she meant was, don't you want to fleece me anymore?
Su Qinian pulled out a piece of paper and wiped the table. "Soy milk and fried dough sticks are the perfect breakfast combination. I've eaten at this shop many times. The soy milk and fried dough sticks are both delicious. Especially the fried dough sticks. They're of the right length and golden - brown after being fried. When you take a bite, they're crispy and delicious..."
Lin Jinran unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva and waved her hand. "Okay, that's it!"
The more they talked, the hungrier they got.
While they were waiting for breakfast, an unexpected guest arrived.
Zhang Qiaozhi stood in front of the stall, carrying her schoolbag. She stared at Su Qinian with wide eyes and exclaimed, "Class Monitor, were you and Lin Jinran together all night last night??"
